Classic Worst Best Comic Ever: Ebay is a Four Letter Word

SarahDot on Dec. 9, 2010

The year was 2004. I was still pretending to be a man. I had bought a digital drawing pad for $25. It was the worst thing imaginable. I had to press so hard, it made my hand hurt to use it. At the time, I was making a podcast called “The Law of the Jungle” and armed with this new technology and a $20, 0.3 megapixel camera, I started taking pictures of things I thought were funny. I spoke about them in the podcast and marked them up with funny words or drawings.

My friends would only look at the pictures.

That's when I had the idea to start my own comic. I planned on making it to the standard of art on the pictures I was defacing–which is to say, very, very poor. So I called the comic “The Worst Comic Ever,” and I intended it to be something I did and didn't really care about. Six years later, I'm still caring about it.

I'm not going to put the first comic here. You can read that on my old site. It is unspeakably poorly drawn.

Since I'm starting my comic up again, I thought that it would be interesting to post the best of the comics from my old site for people who haven't seen them. This is the 14th comic I drew. It is when I really started to care how it looked. I was unemployed, had to sell my laptop, and was upset I only got $20 for it. Enjoy.
